there first. fobos is the moon that goes around mars. on a story you see only on abc7 news, jonathan bloom introduces us to engineers at stanford who are hard at work on a new kind of rover. >> you see a hopping and a tumbling motion. >> this is an early simulation in a rover that in about ten years could look like this, a titanium soccer ball covered in spikes. the stanford professor calls it a hedgehog and it could one day explore mars' biggest moon. >> a thousand times less than the gravity we have an earth. though. nasa mars roves have wheels, wheels might not work on fobos.

>> if you were to try to do a wheel system in low gravity, you could flip it over and completely lose control of it. so instead of rolling they are making them tumble and hop using spinning motors sealed inside. they started with this two dimensional model and how it will work in microgravity. >> if i let it go, it slowly drifts back down and that's as if this were the ground. >> but the next prototype will be in three dimensions. researchers will use what is essentially a small model of the giant shipping cranes at the port of oakland to simulate microgravity on a miniature model of the rover. >> applying very little force, i can move this whole system. >> they are working on a full-scale model at nasa. >> the tumbling and hopping on different types of surfaces. so we looked at doing that on concrete surfaces, on sandy surfaces and rocky surfaces. >> hedgehogs could carry cameras and microscopes, send findings back to an orbiting satellite to help find out where fobos came from when whether humans can land there. >> it's an important object. >> and it could be key to proving or disproving theories

on how the universe began. >> it enables us to understand where we are coming from and where we are heading to. >> at stanford, jonathan bloom, abc7 news. >> well, are the cold days behind us? the woman with the answer, meteorologist lisa argen. >> not quite. we are certainly chilly this morning, colder than yesterday morning. here's the roof camera taking a look at the island. it's pretty nice in the city with temperatures near 40. but north and east bay, plenty of 20s. the freeze warning, frost advisory throughout the next hour or two. and a look at our warmup. that's straight ahead. >> thank you, lisa. also ahead, a new technology offering help for an uncomfortable eye condition.

>> welcome back. this is a live look from our emeryville cam showing a bit of the bay bridge there. 37 degrees right now in emeryville. yes, it is cold everywhere, but, well, this cold snap can't last that long. lisa argen will be along with a full accuweather forecast telling you when a warming trend is on the way. >> a new technology is offering hope for an uncomfortable condition affecting an estimated 23 million people in the country. it's a condition that can take a severe tol on everything from your vision to your quality of life. here is abc7 health and science reporter carolyn johnson with the details. >> on a bad day, even driving can be a challenge for helen cole. >> the hardest part about driving is seeing the signs clearly and it adds a

distinctive glare of bluriness. >> while her normal vision is fine, the blurriness comes from a condition called dry eye. she's forced to treat it throughout the day. >> from the time you get up in the morning your eyes already feel gritty, sometimes they are swollen. definitely red and they have a burning sensation. >> you have a relatively low oil here. >> the ophtamologist said the condition is often caused by a lack of oil which allows the eye's natural oil to evaporate. he is going to treat it with a new technology called lipiflow. it's from pure science. >> that's perfect. >> first they perform a laser scan of her eyes to measure the amount and quality of the oil, as well as her natural pattern of blinking. >> that represents the blinks. >> after analyzing the data, the doctor places two small cups directly on to helen's eyes. they are designed to reach the oil glands beneath her eyelids. >> it warms the eye to about jacuzzi temperature. not too hot, but comfortable. it melts the oils and using a computer program it applies

gentle pressure and expresses the abnormal oils from the glands. >> the procedure takes about twelve minutes and the mild heat does not typically cause any discomfort. once the glands are cleared the eyes again producing oil and moisture. diana had the procedure earlier this year. >> i would say within four days or so i could tell that my eyes did not seem as dry or as uncomfortable. >> the doctor said in severe cases it can take eight to ten weeks to experience relief, but the improvement often lasts several years. >> i think the whole technology from beginning to end is revolutionary. >> and for patients like helen it offers the hope of making it through the day without concentrating on taking care of her eyes. >> a home run would be to, actually, have about totally go away, but for now i would just be happy with having good days. >> and carolyn says that an average treatment costs $1,800 and it is not covered by

insurance right now. however, dr. mandell points out the improvement can improve expenses ranging from eye drop prescriptions to regular eye appointments. >> you know, while we bundle up here in california, it feels like spring on the east coast. temperatures are in the 60s over a broad range of the ohio valley and the southeast. today temperatures could reach 70 degrees from southern virginia to florida. in all, more than 40 cities could tie or break record-high temperatures this weekend. but that warm spell won't last. winter-like weather will return there this week. ive damage will in atlanta, and i think it was 76 there yesterday. >> yeah. but, you know, as you said, they are going to get cooler and we are going to warm up. as soon as tomorrow really our air mass modifies. but this morning, boy, we still have the freeze warning and frost advisory around the bay area. here's a look outside the east bay camera. it is minus 11 at the tahoe valley airport and anywhere from

minus 15 to minus 17 in truckee. while we are cold in the bay area, we will be look at the frosty temperatures lingering for another day into tomorrow morning before we see things change. so a look at live doppler 7 hd. things are clear around the bay. in fact, we are not going to be tracking any rain for the next several days. in fact, it looks like this dry spell is going to last into next weekend. so right now the north bay, the east bay, and the santa clara valley still look at the frosty temperatures until 8:00. and the frost advisory for the bay shores until 8:00, as well, with numbers in the 30s. it's how san francisco, 37 mountain view, 29 san jose with 27 in concord and fairfield. take a look at santa rosa. 23 degrees and 25 in napa. so it is just as cold along the central coast. 27 gilroy, 31 salinas and 33 monterey.

compared to yesterday, yeah, it is colder with seven degrees colder, santa rosa and napa. but even in the south bay where we are below freezing, we are talking about 6 degrees cooler in san jose and 35 degrees cooler in redwood city. freezing temperatures once again and tomorrow morning as well. sunny days and cold nights for the next 28 to 40 hours. we will have milder weather through midweek and temperatures above the average by thursday and friday. so high pressure in the eastern pacific keeping the skies clear. today not much difference from afternoon highs as we had yesterday. in fact all across the state we are looking at that hard freeze along the redwood coast. southern california. 58 in los angeles with 37 in the southern sierra. 27 in the northern sierra. back home we should be in the mid-upper 50s. just 50 today, once again san francisco 50 and 50 in half moon bay.

53 santa rosa. down by the monterey bay, numbers here once again just from 52 in watsonville and barely 50 in morgan hill. overnight tonight probably another frost advisory for the bay shores and a freeze warning. that will drop us once again from the low and mid-20s north bay to near freezing are below that from fremont and san jose. for the look ahead in the accuweather seven-day forecast, calls for temperatures today once again chilly. the cold start tomorrow and then looking at a little bit moldier weather come tuesday, wednesday. we will see the 60s return thursday, friday and saturday. so if you like it dry, you have to take the cold with the nice, sunny afternoon. >> all right. but we are getting back to where we should be? >> yes. >> and as us know, this is one of those rare times when the bay area's forecast coincides with what people in other parts of the country experience during winter. our microclimates make this one of the few places in the world with vastly different types of weather all at once.
